If the Commissioner wishes to file a motion for judgment on the pleadings, the Commissioner must do so within 30 days of the date on which the e-CAR was filed. The motion must contain a full recitation of the relevant facts and a full description of the underlying administrative proceeding. The plaintiff must file an answering brief within 30 days of the filing of the Commissioner's motion. The Commissioner may file a reply within 14 days thereafter.
